Chapter Ten

Dana paced the bedroom. She slapped her forehead. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

The whole time she’d been in the shower after coming in from outside, all she could think about was Juan. How he’d teased her into enjoying their time on the slope, how they’d held hands, kissed, and touched while she pretended that what they were doing was safe. How at the end of the day, it was the best date she’d ever gone on.

A flirtationship.

Who was she fooling?

By the time she used the excuse of being cold and needing a warm shower, Juan had worked her up into a tizzy. She wanted him to keep touching her, to never stop. By the time she’d toweled off and dried her hair, she’d decided to give Juan some attention back.

He’d gone out of his way to make her day special, so she was going to repay him. Hot toddies in front of the gas fireplace, a little candlelight, and if things advanced to the bedroom, they both deserved to end their frustrations.

So, she’d planned a night of seduction. Until that bitch downstairs stole her man, and she realized she was making a fool of herself. She swept her pillow off the bed and threw it across the room. God, how stupid could she be? She was married to Amante Español. Every single woman from the age of twelve to ninety wanted a piece of him.

“Dana? Please?” Juan called through the door again.

She quietly walked toward the door and leaned against it. He sounded upset, and yet she was the one who was getting screwed over. She sat down on the floor and leaned her back against the wood.

If staying married for a month was going to make her this miserable, he deserved to suffer along with her.

“I guess if you’re not going to open the door, you can listen to me then,” he said. “It’s true that I earned my nickname. I won’t lie. There’ve been women in my life since I was twelve-years old. I’ve dated. I’ve had one-night stands, and left a lot of broken hearts. I’m not proud of what I’ve done.” He paused. “Damn, this isn’t coming out right. I’m trying to explain what happened tonight downstairs with that other woman.”

She closed her eyes and swallowed. Each confession pierced her heart. She’d never expected him to be perfect, but the thought of him being a player disappointed her. It wasn’t the fact that he had more experience to brag about than she did, but that she would never have the part of him that he shared with others. She’d always be his faux wife in their stupid pretend marriage.

She’d had an intimate relationship with Jace. Her sexual experience came from one man who scheduled sex and took a shower afterward as if it was another part of his job. She’d never lost control over her feelings before. Not the way other women did around a famous athlete … or how she did around Juan.

“Part of my job
